That seems like an excessively violent takedown of a man who posed no threat. Am I missing something? It looked like he was shielding a mother holding a baby.

What would you say if he was a Rabbi? After all, Jews are not Christians. She needs to take a remedial course in American history. All religions are welcomed here.

I believe watching a seal team going in to capture/kill Bin Laden was a much more somber occasion. No comparison to a Trump/Musk standoff.

NOW he proposes a third party for "the middle 80%"? Uh, no. Sounds waaay too convenient.

This was only a test to see how people respond. I'd like to see other countries exert pressure on the US now.

This doesn't deserve a response and should be ignored.

Um, I fail to see what, if anything, this hearing accomplished. My take? Many words=hogwash.

Alternate MAHA interpretation:
Make America Hate Again
Make America Hungry Again
Make America Harm All
Or maybe we should GAHA: GIVE AMERICA HOPE ALWAYS!
Slogans and catchy phrases are easy. Planning and implementation is hard.

Why is it "wrong" to Just Tell The Truth? If only we lived in a culture that values honesty.

Can you remember the last Republican president to balance the budget? No? It was Bill Clinton and he's still a democrat. He got a lot of flak as I recall, but they got it done. The current BBB fiasco isn't even an attempt at balance.

An example of Due Process. For which the indigent get court appointed counsel. The very rich can hire the best and brightest (well, usually they can). Middle class can rarely afford it.

That is The Thing. He's trying to hide The Very Thing the GOP is doing by accusing the opposition of doing The Thing. It's not a good defense and it's a bad offense.

He's just one lemming in a herd of lemmings. He can be dismissed.

Really? So you actually believe that Trump thinks?

They will not read nor will they see or hear anyone who does not worship their orange god! Like lemmings they rush to the cliff and throw themselves over.

Worse, most of them are profiting from it. Who's going to prosecute their insider trading?

They're going to find out soon.

So you're saying that Musk has been on Welfare for decades? With no work requirements?

#2 2024 was similar to the unrest in the late sixties & seventies. Campaign promises should be realistic and not pipe dreams candidates can't achieve. Campaign like Jimmy Carter and live what you preach!

I think voters just got so tired of all the "noise". Voters had to sift through all the shouting coming at us. Then the protests were warring against each other. A no win situation with plenty of blame on both Israel and Palestine. Ukraine and Russia dragging on and on. #1

There will be Americans sharing the same fate soon. Cutting government contributions to food pantries will hurt American children. MAHA=Make America Hungry Again.

I have a long memory and I can remember last time GOP and Trump passed a tax bill. I personally know people who expected refunds but instead owed hundreds or thousands of dollars. The IRS offered payment plans to those who couldn't come up with cash. Remember that now?

Their brains have been filled with poison from the toxic waste MAGA has been feeding them. No logic or reason can penetrate.

Well, if he doesn't take drugs he's showing signs of early onset dementia evidenced by speech and executive function deficits.

Sanctuary cities are based on the Old Testament laws. These Bible thumpers are obviously not Bible scholars. Maybe open the Book before trying to quote it. MAGA ignorance on display.

You took a trans flight last week. You can have a trans radio, you can be trans(ferred), trans(ported) or even trans(formed), trans(lated), trans(planted). You can go to Trans(Sylvania). It's ludicrous.

Biden kept the country alive and functioning through the pandemic. It's a grave mistake to blame him for the voters' choice. Face it; A large swath of law enforcement (or private forces) are very willing to violate the constitutional rights of others. But they're giving up their own rights, too.

I have only tears. The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave is no more. It has fallen to the Weak and the Fearful.

He will never understand real patriotism as demonstrated by the brave souls whose lives we honor today. There is no greater love than to lay down your life for another.

Since he's not very intelligent, he's not able to find ways to compensate for cognitive deficits. As a result, no one expects much from Trump. The less educated can understand his speeches so they vote for him.

So you opened ten new facilities, fired the staff and put in self service lanes! This is how you make the VA great!?!

Most of them believe they won't have to deal with voters again. Republicans think they are now in for life. At least, that's how they're acting.

We don't know how to fight this except through the courts. I know from experience that judges order law enforcement to enforce court orders. This needs to happen.
